Events Module issue in Node.js

Question

Just started node.js and having this error while playing with events module.

TypeError: Cannot read property 'on' of undefined

const event = require('events').EventEmitter();
event.on('myevent', (msg)=>{
    for(var i = 0; i < 3; i++){
        console.log(`Message is: ${msg}`);        
    }    
});
event.emit('myevent', 'All is fine');

Answer 1

To solve your problem you need to instantiate the event obj.

for example:

const events = require('events');
const event = new events.EventEmitter();

now rest code will work!
